Mason Mount says he’s “speechless” after being honoured at Stamford Bridge

Mason Mount has admitted he was left ‘speechless’ after being honoured with a mural next to Stamford Bridge.

The stunning artwork of the England international is one of just five across the country as part of a campaign to launch FIFA 21 on PS5.

According to The Sun, Manchester City pair Phil Foden and Georgia Stanway each have a mural as do Tottenham ace Steven Bergwijn and Liverpool’s Trent Alexander-Arnold – all near their respective clubs.

The five players chosen by EA Sports honour their FIFA Next ambassadors – footballers that are at the forefront of the next generation.

And Mount was delighted with his mural in Fulham that is being displayed outside Stamford Bridge.

He said: “As a lifelong Chelsea fan, having a mural installed just around the corner from Stamford Bridge, celebrating the next generation of emerging talent is amazing.

“I’m pleased with how my career has progressed to date, but the hard work never stops – this is just the start.”

The 21-year-old later shared a picture of the artwork on Instagram alongside the caption: “From the academy to having a mural next to the bridge! Speechless.”
